Hi.

I've been reading for 2 days all over the web(including dozens of tom's hardware threads) trying to find a good enough PSU for the thing I'm building but I still can't decide, so I thought of asking a question specific for my problem.
The PC is as follows:

Asus MAXIMUS VII RANGER
Kingston HyperX Genesis 8 GB (2 x 4 GB)
Intel i7-4790k
Asus GTX770-DC2OC

My head's been spinning over the idea of Haswell compatible PSUs and then some PSUs having bad capacitors or just being plain garbage so I could really use the help on deciding what particular model I should be buying.
My general assumption is that it should be a good +550 watt PSU with the right amper amount, but again... most of the ones I saw were not on the compatibility list(and i know i can disable the deep sleep status off through BIOS but I'd rather just buy a compatible PSU)

So here I'm asking the kind experts about which exact PSU should I buy to cover my system. And of course, the cheaper, the better.

Thank you in advance
